Certainly a lot of people will be looking for a [Sarah Palin Halloween costume](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auntie-annes-and-cinnabon-costumes), but nothing could possibly embody Sarah Palin prejudices better than the “Sarah Palin [Art Wig](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nova-arts-salon)” by buddhagouda.

It’s hilarious! The [big rats nest of a hairdo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wig-styling) is embedded with stereotypical Alaskan symbols, like an oil well, a bear, deer, guns, bullets and shot gun shells.

Poor Sarah Palin. She really has taken quite a beating for her regional background, but good for her for staying proud of her Alaskan heritage.
